A SENATOR wants the government to include teachers among the priority in its coronavirus vaccine program in time for a possible reopening of physical classes in August.
Senator Sherwin T. Gatchalian noted that in Indonesia, public workers including teachers are second among the priority list after health workers.
“The Indonesian experience is something that we can study, but definitely, vaccinating teachers and putting them on the priority list is a must,” he told a Senate hearing on Wednesday.
Mr. Gatchalian, who heads the Senate basic education committee, said the Education department should lobby for teachers’ inclusion.
